    Guess it wasnt the 3rd member.

    Thought I busted the 3rd member on the 66. Figured pinion or carrier. Just pulled it apart and it snapped an axle. Oh well should be easy fix. 351w pushing 35s with a small bearing rear. Mostly street driving.

    Brake fluid capacity

    On average how much fluid does the brake system hold on a bronco? I just finished putting the hydroboost on the 72 with 4 whl disc. All that's left is to bleed it and I want to push out the old fluid. Mc is new so will bleed it first.

    Ps fluid

    Just finishing up hydroboost swap on the 72. New pump, hydroboost unit and maybe a bc cooler. What's the best fluid to run? If going synthetic does the old ps fluid need to be completely bled from the existing parts of the system?

    Auto shifter

    I'm possibly swapping my 72 to an automatic tranny. Is there any drawback to running the column shifter? I've already go a hole in the floor for the 4-speed shifter but was thinking of getting back some floor space.
